Who we are
Angkor Travel Photography, established in 2012, is a partnership
between 3 professional photographers all based in Siem Reap,
providing guided photography workshops throughout Cambodia. With
every member of our team having lived in the country for multiple
years, our extensive local knowledge and long-standing relationships
enable us to provide an unrivalled experience to all of our guests.
Our team:
RÉGIS BINARD has served as a freelance photographer for almost 20 years, travelling all over the world working for
magazines and non-profits, as well as shooting weddings and commercial assignments. From 2000 to 2009, while
still residing in France, he covered weddings all throughout Europe before orienting his career more towards travel
photography. First working with French non-profit Au Fil de l’Eau, he travelled throughout Central and Southeast Asia
as both a photographer and project manager. In 2011, Régis moved to Cambodia, wherefrom he has supported local
NGOs, corporations, and editorial outlets ever since. Régis prides himself on creating images that are documentary in
nature, with no posed images; his natural rapport with people and communication skills enable him to have meaningful
interactions with people, translating into more meaningful photographs.
CHRIS CUSICK is a British travel photographer who relocated to Asia in 2011. Based first in South Korea, alongside his
role as a language instructor, he ran photography and post-processing workshops, contributed to both local and Englishspeaking editorial communities, and even served as an editor for a startup photography magazine. In 2014, Chris decided
it was time to "quit the dayjob," seeking to rely solely on his photography as his source of income. This challenge took him
to Cambodia, where he has since gone on to support a number of international non-profits and commercial enterprises,
as well as continuing his long-standing passion as a photo educator and workshop leader. Chris' images, published in the
UK and throughout Asia, are characterised by dynamic light and incredibly candid moments made possible only by a real
appreciation of the people he photographs. He joined the Angkor Travel Photography team in late 2015.
ALESSANDRO VANNUCCI is an award-winning Italian freelance photographer, specialising in reportage and social
photography, as well documenting the development of non-profits through his photography and videography. Alessandro
has a vast amount of experience as a photography and filmmaking workshop host, having led photographic adventures all
over the world including Myanmar, India, Vietnam, Laos, Morocco and Turkey. His workshops cover a wide array of subjects
and techniques from time-lapse and infrared photography to iPhoneography and post-production software, as well as
more traditional stills photography. Having called Cambodia home for the last four years, he is incredibly passionate about
documenting the local culture and the magnificent Angkor Archaeological complex, using his unrivalled local knowledge
to uncover photographic opportunities that otherwise wouldn't be available.
